When Lutfullah, member of a distinguished Sufi family of Malwa, and a master of languages, visited England in 1844 in the company of Mir Jarar Ali Khan, son-in-law of the Nawab of Surat, he recorded his observations on various matters connected with the British government, culture, and society in what has come to be regarded as the first, and best, autobiography in English by an Indian. The volume will have a substantial introduction and annotations by Mushirul Hasan.
